In the textile industry, there is a pressing need for people who can facilitate the translation of creative solutions from designers into manufacturing language and data. The design technologist has to understand the elements and principles employed by designers and how these change for various textile media. One must also have a good understanding of the processes, materials and products for which the textile designer is required to produce creative solutions. This book will be for designers wishing to improve their technological knowledge, technologists wishing to understand the design process, and anyone else who seeks to work at this design-technology interface.
Key Features:
• Provides a comprehensive information about textile production, apparel production and the design aspects of both textile and apparel production.
• Fills the traditional gap between design and manufacture changing with advanced technologies.
• Includes brief summary of spinning, weaving, chemical processing and garmenting.
• Facilitates translation of creative solutions from designers into manufacturing language and data.
• Covers set of workshop activities.
